Hello Pervez,
Glad to see you contribution, but like you, I could not pinpoint 665 DPC, also called (Desai Building).
I can visualise from memory the skaters going round the “Panch Maidan” and the cycle races etc.
They were indeed good old days!

Thanks for your effort to illustrate the buildings in DPC. Like my brother Pervez, I used to live at No –665 DPC but could not visualise our flat.
It was indeed a nostalgic run of old DPC.
Many thanks again, and a belated Nawruz Mubarak.

How nice to see these pics! We used to live there, next to the Agiary. I think it is the best residential area in Mumbai!Thanks for posting the pics.

It was great re-visiting the lush green streets of Dadar Parsi colony. The buildings have changed – high rise added to the original structures – a sign of the times. The five gardens are the emeralds in the crown of the colony. Fond chilhood memories. Captions of what photo was taken on which street would have been helpful. Sure appreciate the visual treat.
Thank you!

I lived in DPC as a youngster. Moved to Karachi in 1947.
Pictures were very nostalgic. However captioning would have been abig help. Thanks
